Congratulations!! Just try to really enjoy it. It's a lot of work, but very interesting and fun. Get organized in whatever way works best for you. Don't miss class/clinicals. Make sure to stay on top of the information, but make time for yourself too. You need to have a life and some downtime to decompress. I truly believe you need to take good care of yourself in order to take good care of others. Have fun! :redpinkhe

These are all get pieces of knowledge! I am used to the sleepless nights, I have a 5 yr old and an 18 month old. I think being sleep deprived will help me :) Does anyone have any tips on how to manage your school time/studies and juggle kids at the same time?? Do you have time for your kids to play sports? My grandparents help a lot with my oldest (can't physically keep up with my baby or they would help with him too) My husband works 3rd shift and during the day has court sometimes and also a part time job some days too. So it's basically me and the boys, I do have a sitter lined up and a back up, so that will help. I'm making dinner plans on index cards, easy fast and cheap to help save time too. I'm just worried that my children are going to feel neglected. I have been a stay at home mom with them since my oldest was 15 months old and since my baby was born.
